BOBUS 8: John Whittaker's Pink Flamingos
WE'VE GOT AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! Also, since scheduling difficulties led to us skipping Whit's Endless Summer last month, we're covering an extra single episode of Adventures in Odyssey. Let's see how Focus on the Family handles the sensitive issue of arcade games in 1995.

I went to whit’s end for the second time last year with my family; convinced my sister to buy me a wad fam choc sod and bought absolutely nothing else. Effervescent. My baby brother got to do foley in their kids radio station the first time, it was actually cool as much as it burns my mouth to say. Can’t wait to hear how August goes
Lydia!! She sold the purple and I wanted to be her when I grew up lol Brian I feel so seen. I also dressed up as Lydia often for Hallo-err-I mean Trunk or Treat
I live like 10 minutes away from Focus on the Family headquarters in Colorado Springs so I’ll definitely be excited to see you guys visit this strange town
The Steve Green reference was for me
Th-this is my Adventure in Odyssey! It was made for me!
As a North Dakotan, it is SLIGHTLY gayer here specifically in Fargo and Grand Forks. South Dakota maybe has like one or two holdouts but the rest is a conservicunt nightmare. All my homies hate SD!
a Marxist? IN MY FORKS? it's more likely than you think.
If I’m recalling my ice cream course in culinary school correctly sherbet technically is a subset of sorbet, but I’m mostly commenting because orange and chocolate do fuck as a combo.
Do we get to pick our Adventures in Odyssey episode, or will it be assigned to us?
In subscription order
Congrats on the 1k. well deserved. Been listening since Episode 13. Won't be able to go to Colorado Springs, Colorado, but maybe if you ever RETVRN to Grand Rapids...
Hahahaha they tally the swears in movies? Maybe they don't in games because if a character swears in repeatable dialogue they'd just have to go ahead and set the tally to "infinite". Roger Ebert warned us about this. 😔 But they should make video content out of that tally, shame CinemaSins is already taken. CinemaBlasphemies just doesn't roll off the tongue as well
I had the pleasure of revisiting Steve Green's Hide 'Em In Your Heart last month and he must've been so proud of that snappy lil soft rock groove on "You Are the Light of the World." jazz flute bay-beeee!
"a friend who stinks???" "no, a friend who STICKS"
"Al Menconi Ministries" was the only place I could find for Evangelical game reviews in the 90s and 2000s. I remember a review complaining about Diablo II's combat playing out "as rock music blares"
Any chance one of you will take acid at the Focus compound, Matt Christman-style?
no
transcendent Pauline joke
Yessssss can’t wait for you all to go. Congrats on surpassing 1,000 it is well deserved.
Thanks! Love the adventures in odyssey eps!
nowhere NEAR Colorado Springs but 8/4 is now more important than my anniversary
The Plague of Frog is a joke mentioned in passing in Terry Pratchett's novel Pyramids, to describe how much the pseudo Egyptian kingdom has declined: even their plagues are lackluster, to the point of being a single frog that gets into the vents and keeps people awake at night.
shadow the hedgehogs a bitch ass motherfucker
Hello I am the one South Dakotan listener. North Dakota is only gayer by default. We have maybe one gay bar state wide.
